Two thoughts about Vaughn De Leath
I was born in 1931 and raised in Easton, CT
We lived on Sport Hill Road. About 300 yards north of us was a very nice colonial house and I was told that a famous singer, "Vonda Leath" lived in it. During World War 2 the house became vacant and went up for sale and I toured it. I was impressed by the fact that in the cellar was a little church-like room complete with pews and an altar. It was exactly like a Catholic church altar
Aw, just listen to Baby Your Mother by her, could her star be any more deserved? No it can't! .... And even her Mom gets a star and so do you too!
